Episode Description

This week a few interesting topics made the news including a new trend that is sweeping social media. People are foregoing entertainment and just about everything on long flights. Does this make the flight experience better or does it just sound like hell?

In other #news Chase was making noise with a rumor about a possible Amex Centurion competitor the bank will launch. We also saw new spending offers for Chase cardholders and a glitch affecting recent applicants and their welcome offers. Other topics discussed include: sledding down sand dunes, Etihad's interesting new redemption, more about 5X rotating cards and how Amex changed the terms of a popular offer.
